MicroAlgo QAS, by optimizing quantum circuit architectures, can significantly enhance the robustness of VQA in various noisy environments. By automatically searching for suitable circuit designs, QAS ...

This is the sort of editorial that might get some "OK Boomer" snark from the Gen Z readers out there. That is, if they're out there. It's about the recent news that Cumulus media, the owner of 394 ...

Abstract: Escaping local optima remains a central challenge in navigating rugged, multi-modal optimization landscapes. Traditional methods such as Steepest Ascent Hill Climbing (SAHC) often suffer ...

If it feels like social platforms suddenly “get” you more than they used to, you’re not imagining it! In 2026, feeds aren’t only reacting to what you click anymore. They’re predicting what you ...

The early stage pathogens of plant diseases have the characteristic of low concentration and difficult detection, which exacerbates the difficulty of tracing the disease, leading to rapid spread and ...

Add a description, image, and links to the local-search-algorithm topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

Most points of 0 gradient are not local optima, it is a saddle points (derivative = 0). Plateaus can slow down the learning. Plateau is the area where the derivative is close to 0 for a long time. Can ...
